    Description

    Currently Navigation supports rel and rev attributes, but these are only used by the Links view helper. I've read multiple people needing rel="nofollow" on anchors, and although it's easily implemented using a custom view helper, it's also no work to implement this in the framework itself. So why not support it?

    Hi Maghiel, there are also for the "a" element many more options: [http://w3.org/TR/html4/…] Your patch allows only one option!

    Hey Kai,

    I wrote this patch because at that point there were some people on the mailing list asking to support rel="nofollow". But you're right, why not add all the options then?

    I'll look deeper into this and change the issue accordingly (and attach a patch eventually), but now first going to have my friday night ;)

    Thanks for the input!

    At the moment you can only set the relation for "Zend_View_Helper_Navigation_Links" with "Zend_Navigation_Page::setRel()".

    We need a solution to set relations for the HTML Link element and for the HTML A element.

    The HTML5 specification includes a nice overview in a table: www.w3.org/TR/html5/links.html#linkTypes" rel="nofollow">HTML5: 4.12 Links - 4.12.4 Link types There you can see which type is allowed for the Link element and which is allowed for the A element.
